Marine Headquarters, Marineford.
At this point, half an hour had passed since the Whitebeard Pirates arrived.
The entire Whitebeard Pirates is engaged in a fierce battle with the Marines.
The Whitebeard Pirates had a total of 16 division commanders. Excluding Ace and the deceased Thatch, all 14 remaining division commanders were present.
All 43 affiliated pirate crews under the Whitebeard Pirates also arrived this time.
The entire force totaled over 50,000 men, including nearly 50 strong individuals equivalent to Marine Vice Admiral.
The Beasts Pirates that Luo Wen defeated in Wano Country were not much smaller. Although they only had 30,000 men, that was because many of their affiliated pirate crews had not yet arrived. The number of their high-ranking members would not be less than that of the Whitebeard Pirates.
This is the full power of one of the Four Emperors' crews, enough to carve out a territory and make the World Government hesitant to take action.
Faced with the severely aged Whitebeard, the Navy could only set a trap and dare to attack the entire Whitebeard Pirates from their own headquarters.
The navy also assembled its elite forces, bringing together almost all of its high-end capabilities.
The only two Shichibukai, Hawkeye Mihawk and Tyrant Kuma, joined the battle.
Apart from the necessary personnel stationed at each branch base, all available forces have arrived.
In total, there are 100,000 elite naval personnel, including nearly 100 strong individuals at the Vice Admiral or above.
The disparity in strength between the two sides was enormous, and even though the Whitebeard Pirates were fighting desperately, they still couldn't stop the decline.
Hawkeye Mihawk and Tyrant Kuma participated in the battle at the same time. As the only two remaining Shichibukai, they did their best on the battlefield.
Hawkeye's opponents were Flower Sword and Jozu, Vista although he was fighting two against one, he seemed to be handling them with ease.
"Hawkeye, do you really have to work for the World Government?!"
Vista withstood the slash fiercely and roared.
Despite being Supreme Swordsman like Hawkeye, and being a powerful warrior comparable to the Shichibukai, Drill Jozu is a formidable opponent.
But even with Jozu together, he still couldn't beat Hawkeye.
Facing two opponents alone, Hawkeye had the upper hand. Perhaps he didn't end the fight quickly just to savor the experience a little longer.
"Heh, this has nothing to do with being a lackey; I simply want to fight a powerful swordsman."
Hawkeye Mihawk's golden eyes remained completely calm, showing no sign of wavering.
Another master swordsman has appeared in the world, but Luo Wen is running around and he can't find him at all.
Let's warm up here first, then head to Dressrosa for a fight with Luo Wen.
Who knows, maybe Luo Wen will come and join the fun today?
"Damn it! You think you're so great just because you're the World's Greatest Swordsman?!" Jozu and Vista gritted their teeth and roared, "We'll defeat you and rescue Ace!"
Hawkeye remained unmoved, showing no sign of being outmatched by the combined power of the two.
Ace, I think I've heard Red-Haired mention him before.
But that's not important; what's important is to finish warming up and go find that man to duel with.
Gradually, Hawkeye increased his strength, while Vista and Jozu's bursts of power subsided, making their situation increasingly difficult.
Meanwhile, Bartholomew Kuma, another of the Shichibukai, was not to be outdone. Having been largely modified, he also fought two against one, battling two division commanders of the Whitebeard Pirates simultaneously.
The combination of the Paw-Paw Fruit and Kizaru's laser abilities overwhelmed the two division commanders, who could barely manage a draw against Kuma.
A draw is already a loss; if they can find an opening elsewhere, they're doomed.
Marco, the strongest Whitebeard Pirates, battles Kizaru.
Kizaru was slacking off, but Marco was still being overwhelmed and had no chance to fight back.
He thought Marco was a great opponent, someone he could keep dealing damage to.
On the surface, he seemed to be working very hard and there was no danger whatsoever.
"Phoenix Marco, Kowane!"
Kizaru adjusted his glasses and casually flicked his wrist, unleashing dozens of golden beams of light.
"The Yasakani no Magatama!"
Dozens of beams shot towards Marco.
"The Undying Thistle!"
Marco emitted blue flames from his hands, forming a circular shield in front of him.
The beams of light struck the shield one after another, but were breached in an instant.
Pfft!
Pfft!
The remaining beams of light hit Marco's body precisely, without missing a single one.
Marco's body was pierced by the beam of light, and his flesh was gelatinized by the high temperature.
"Cough cough~"
He groaned, and blue flames enveloped his body, quickly restoring him to his original state.
He had done this action countless times.
He was beaten so badly by Kizaru that he was completely powerless to fight back. If it weren't for the Energy Steroids stimulating his life force, he would have died long ago.
Admiral are indeed monsters.
And this guy kept saying how scary it was.
Could it be that she has hemophobia and was frightened by the blood he was bleeding?
Marco looked at the lazy and lewd Kizaru and thought to himself with a touch of self-mockery.
Then, looking at his companions who were being beaten and retreating, he couldn't help but cheer up again.
"Admiral Kizaru, you are strong, I am no match for you." Marco looked at Kizaru and said, "But now, I cannot fall!"
"Pineapple Shrapnel!"
The resurrected blue flames surged from his body and drifted down onto the Whitebeard Pirates members who were fighting.
Immediately, the members of the Whitebeard Pirates were invigorated, and their injuries had healed considerably.
This was also the first time he had treated others; without his treatment, the situation of the Whitebeard Pirates members would have been even worse.
"This is truly appalling, having to heal others at a time like this." Kizaru sighed, his voice suddenly turning sharp. "If you keep doing this, I'm going to get my salary docked."
He glanced furtively at the Five Elders and Sengoku, noticing that they kept glancing over from time to time; clearly, he couldn't slack off any longer.
Moreover, Marco has no family ties, so he doesn't need to have too many concerns.
"Marco, have you ever been Light-Speed Kick!?"
Kizaru transformed into a golden light and instantly appeared in front of Marco.
With a single kick, golden light engulfed Marco's vision.
Boom!
A violent explosion rang out.
Marco was blown into the air and suffered severe injuries.
What followed was a dazzling golden beam of light.
Amidst these successive bombings, Marco was barely able to protect himself and could no longer worry about others.
